The Court's decision to let stand the appeals court decisions was a surprise, but at least one of my legal eagle friends had speculated just last week that this might be the fastest way to marriage equality.
It is a decision/nondecision that will please many, anger many and satisfy no one totally. It still leaves the nation as a whole divided and confused, as has already been evident, with people marrying and moving to other jurisdictions where marriage is not recognized.
But it is a huge step forward. So to all our friends in the areas where equality is now the law of the land, congratulations!
